Most books on the War of 1812 focus on the burning of Washington, D.C., the Battles of Baltimore and New Orleans, and the war in the Old Northwest. Scant attention, however, has been paid the Niagara Campaign of 1814-the American army's ambitious but failed attempt to wrest Canada from British control. While a few writers have dealt with aspects of this effort, Richard Barbuto is the first to offer a comprehensive study of the entire campaign. Barbuto covers every aspect of a campaign that saw the American army come of age, even as its military leaders blundered away potential victory and the acquisition of a coveted expanse of North American territory. Vividly recreating the major battles on the Niagara peninsula—at Chippawa, Lundy's Lane, Fort Erie, and Cook's Mill—Barbuto also clarifies the role of these engagements within the overall framework of American strategy. Despite early success at Chippawa, four long months of fighting finally ended in something like a draw, with the British still in control of Canada. Barbuto argues convincingly that the American government was never really able to harness, coordinate, and focus its tremendous resources in ways that would have allowed the campaign to succeed. Much of the blame, he shows, can be attributed to the poor leadership and confused strategic thinking of President James Madison and his secretary of war, John Armstrong. The American effort was further undermined by manpower shortages, a few ineffective field commanders, and the army and navy's inability to coordinate their objectives and operations. Even so, Barbuto contends that the American soldier, led by the likes of Jacob Brown and the legendary Winfield Scott, performed surprisingly well against one of the great armies of the nineteenth century. Barbuto's analysis, unmarred by national bias, presents a balanced picture of these events from the perspective of all participants—American, British, Canadian, and Native American. He also fills an important gap by providing the first ever capsule histories of all regimental-sized units involved in the campaign. Breathing new life into these events, his far-ranging study should become the definitive work on this long-neglected campaign.

Though the opening of the atomic age preempted the invasion, Maga (American heritage, Bradley U.) shows how it was planned and approved by US president Truman in June 1945. For too long, he says, historians have considered the plans a mere footnote to the story of the atomic bomb and Japanese surrender. He thinks it deserves military and historical analysis on its own merit. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Italy Invades, full of restless adventurers, canny generals, and the occasional scoundrel, is a fast-paced and compelling read, the perfect sequel to America Invades. Recreating their success with America Invades, Christopher Kelly and Stuart Laycock take another global tour, this time starting from Italy and exploring that country's military involvements throughout the ancient and modern worlds. From the empire building of the Romans, through the globe-spanning Age of Exploration, to the multinational cooperation of NATO, Italy has conquered and explored countries as diverse and far-ranging as Cape Verde and Mongolia and Uruguay. With the additional guide of maps and photographs, the reader can visually follow the Italians as they conquer the world. The book also contains an excerpt from the never before published An Adventure in 1914, written by Christopher Kelly's maternal great-grandfather, Thomas Tileston Wells. Wells served as the American consul general to Romania each summer; and in the summer of 1914, as war exploded across Europe, he was there with his wife and two children.

Separatists in Québec have at last achieved independence - and a Canadian civil war looms to suppress the rebellion. Panic hits the streets in Montréal - and even more so in Ottawa. Ottawa calls London and London calls Washington, DC to ask for "military assistance." President John F. Kennedy debates the issue of an intervention in Canada. Should he do nothing and reap the rewards? Without Québec, the Maritime Provinces are cut off from the rest of their country and are too small to function on their own so they apply for statehood. Canada crumbles and soon Kennedy could achieve the Manifest Destiny that even Presidents Polk and Madison failed to achieve with Northward expansion. Filled with satire and humor, this alternate history is sure to make you laugh. But, alas. What is the president's decision? Although his cabinet is not sure what Kennedy will decide, one thing is for sure: this would not be the first time America invaded Canada.

The invasion of America was easy. There were no amphibious landings; no paratroopers fell from the sky. They numbered not in the thousands, but tens of thousands. We worked with them, trusted them, loved them. Behind their serene exteriors beat hearts filled with hatred. The death of every American, young and old, was their goal. We made it easy for them. "If you strike their cities, their strength will be exhausted and their spirits will break!" -Sun-tzu, The Art of War Ryker nodded to the members of the press standing before him, "Ladies and gentlemen, over the past forty-eight hours there have been four horrific and evil terrorist attacks conducted against the innocent members of this community and this country. These attacks have resulted in the deaths of one hundred and forty-seven American citizens, and that number will no doubt climb further, though we all hope and pray that it does not. The killers made no distinctions between man, woman or child. They attacked without provocation our homes, a place of worship and those among us who are the most vulnerable," the crime scene photos from the group home still glaringly fresh in his mind. "I believe these targets were specifically chosen for the severe emotional impact they would wreak on us as a nation. The attacks were meant to rattle our state of mind and destroy faith in our way of life. We, as a people, must unite and refuse to allow that to happen."
